T-Mobile Offers Call, Text and Data Plan That Includes Canada and Mexico Without Roaming
Posted in: Uncategorized
T-Mobile is promising that making calls, sending text messages and using data in Canada and Mexico just got easier.
T-Mobile, the nation’s fourth-largest wireless carrier, has unveiled a feature for its Simple Choice plans called Mobile Without Borders, which allows customers with smartphones to call landlines and mobile phones, send text messages and use data in Mexico and Canada without incurring roaming charges. It also works for subscribers who travel to Canada and Mexico, whose charges will be the same as if they were still in the U.S. Existing Simple Choice customers will have to opt-in to the the feature and the offer starts July 15.
The move is part of T-Mobile’s recently launched “Uncarrier Amped” campaign, which kicked off in late June with promotion called “Jump on demand” that allowed users to upgrade smartphones at will for a monthly fee. The latest announcement is also a step beyond the company’s October 2013 announcement, which offered unlimited international data and text services at no extra charge for its Simple Choice customers, though that offer was limited to a slower 2G connection whereas today’s announcement is for LTE data. All Simple Choice pre-paid plans are also included in the offer.
